Strange. I wonder why I didn't see that warning. Not with
allmodconfig, and not with my normal build.

[ Looks around ]

Hmm. Apparently "allmodconfig" doesn't actually enable memory hotplug.
And the reason is that allmodconfig enables KASAN, which then disables
MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

I wonder if we should make KASAN depend on !COMPILE_TEST, because it
does seem to disable a lot of build-time testing.

Oh well. I'll remove the stupid unused variable, thanks for the heads-up.
